Alvaton Fire Department is one of nine volunteer fire Departments serving Warren County Kentucky outside the City of Bowling Green. Established in 1972, and operating from three stations,  our 39 firefighters proudly protect 8,500+ residents and 4536 properties in 72 square miles of southeast Warren County providing primary fire suppression, medical first response, vehicle accident extrication, hazardous materials initial response, and fire prevention education. We have a classification of ISO Class 6 within 5 road miles of our three stations.

We operate under the authority of the Warren Fiscal Court as an independent non-profit organization dedicated to serving and protecting our community. We are governed by a Board of Directors elected by and from the community, who oversee our finances and operations.  Our Board meets each 1^st Monday at 7pm at Station 3, the public is welcome.

We operate regularly, and train with the eight other Warren County Fire Departments, Bowling Green Fire Department, Medical Center EMS, Warren Co. Emergency Management, and all county and state law enforcement agencies.

 Our revenue comes primarily from voluntary annual dues, paid by our communities residential and commercial property owners. These dues are collected by the Warren County Sheriff on annual property tax bills. This income is supplemented by nominal support from the Commonwealth of Kentucky, Warren County government, and from fees for responses to non-member incidents. There is never a charge for any medical response, and residents who have paid dues for the current year are not charged a fee for responses. 

 Our firefighters and support personnel are 100% volunteer and receive no direct monetary compensation for their service, only a small annual incentive based on their individual participation in department responses, training, and other operations through the previous year.
